CAssEL,s LIBRARY.

While enjoying golden few minutes
lately, in the airy, cool, well-lighted and
altogether pleasant book store of Messrs.
Parsons & Co., our attention was at
tracted to, among other literary treas
ures, numerous numbers of Cassell's Ma
tional Library.
This library is one of the most cheap,
convenient and substantial of the many
modern vehicles of that ilk by which the
gems of literature are scattered broad
cast over the land. The library is weekly
in number, is published in New York
City, the great literary center of the con-
tinent, if not of the world, has an uhri-
vailed list of authors, a yearly subscrip-
ton price of but IS, and is offered in sim
gle numbers, pocket form, for ten cents
We selected from the many tempting
volumes, "Voyagers' Tales" by Richard
Hakluyt, "The Earl of Chatham" by
Lord Macaulay, Sermons on the Card, Z"
by Hugh Latimer, and "Grace Abound
ing to the Chief of Sinners" by glorious
old John Bunyan. We then retired to
discuss the lucious literary feast we had
procured at an outlay of forty cents.
Richard Hakluyt was a contemporary
and friend of Sir Walter Raleigh, there
being but years difference in these
two distinguished servants of the public
good, and subjects of Queen Bess.
Hakluyt was specially fitted by nature
for his LIES work, and while yet youth
lectured publicly in 1917 upon gl Jgraphy,
then a quantity of the most circum-
scribed limits, showing "both the old
imperfectly composed and lately re-
formed maps, globes, spheres and other
instruments of this art" In the light
of the discoveries made since these early
lectures of Hakluyt, che can scarcely
conceive how the lecturer managed to
get together enough "globes spheres and
maps" to make an interesting talk.
In 1882 Richard Hakluyt issued the
first of his many geographical publica-
tons. This work was in narrative form,
and bore one of the quantity ponderous
titles peculiar to the age, viz: "Divers
Voyages touching the Discovery of
America, and the Land adjacent into the
same, made first OF all by our English
men, and afterwards by the Frenchmen
and Bretons. And certain Notes and
Observations necessary for those who
shall hereafter make the like Attempt"
In 1884 Hakluyt laid before Queen
Elizabeth paper entitled ga Particular
Discourse Concerning Western Discov-
cries, written in the year 1884 by Richard
Hakluyt, OF Oxford, at the request and
direction of the right worshipful Mr..
Walter Raleigh, before the coming home
OF his two barks." This paper recon-
mended the plantation of unsettled
America.
In 1886 Hakluyt wrote from Paris an
account of the voyages of Landoniere to
Florida. Such was Richard Hakluvt,
the author OF "Voyagers Tales" in the
Cassell Library.

thought that something unusual was on hand, and
the thought would not have been far from the fact
for after chat all around the move was made 10
the residence of Rev. w. W. Reese, pastor Of
Chestnut Grove Presbyterian Church. AS soon as
every one had alighted from their carriages they
went in q body to the house and soon had the
Kitchen flied with an endless variety of good
things for the inner man. The pastor and family
were taken completely by surprise, for they had
no intmation OF anything until their SABLE watch
man. Caesar by name, gave the alarm. Two par
res of family -four, potatoes, poultry, lard ana
many other things were put in the iarder. Ate,
| pleasant chat cake and lemonade were passeu
| arouLd and everybody appeared pleased, ana 10
| saw the pastor was happy is too mild word to

| pulpit he made the following remarks:
"It is with pleasurable feelings that refer to

my place express to you my high appreciation u
your kindness as q congregation in so iavisnly re-
Numbering us at the parsonage Your company

done it unto one of the least of these my brethren
We have done it unto me- By your kind welcom

Ravv,,,e 9Th pistrict-The farm of the late

Rayville, 9Th District The farm of the late
Robert Eareckson, situated near Rayville, con-
tanning 225 acres of land and improved by large
brick dwelling, barn and other outbuildings, was
sold on Tuesday last at trustees SALE to Jacob A.
Shauck, for $l525 per acre. This is remarkably
cheap property and the improvements cost more
than the entire farm sold for.
The personal property of the late owner was
sold on the same day by John M. Carter, Esq, ad-
minis.rator, and as it cash sale it sold much
below the value of it. The horse sold for Sll.0O
carriage for $1,000 and harness for 80 cts.-ths

that he was the peer of Bonner or Vanderbilt, i
he possessed them, only amounting to the small
sum of $21.50.

a pleasure to take the list of names of young men
who have graduated from this institution and re-

compels me to confess that my judgment Of hui
man nature was at fault for once, at least. When
that young man was a student here I used to tel
him that he was so indolent that did not be-

not if he remained around Baltimore. In time
he left the McDonogh, and almost Immediately
change came over him. He was no longer tn

noon last the edihce was dedicated with imposing

Harford turnpike, short distance north of the

porous German citizens, engaged princinaliv in
farming and truck gardening. The church il a
frame structure 26 by go feet, with finished
ass%sn' 20 lees square The intsrer of the
eel rail being also OF walnut and very neat. The
ceiling is wainscoated and finished in oil and from
its centre is suspended large chandelier, the gift
of one of the members. In the gallery is a new
organ, and the stained-g glass widows shed soft
and pleasant light over the congregation. The
auditorium, which has seating capacity of about
$780, was handsomely trimmed with wreaths of
evergreen and flowers, and the sweet-toned bell in
the tower proclaimed that the pretty church was
ready for dedication and invited the people to
enter and participate in the services The wealth
er was very fine and the attendance unexpectedly
large, there being nearly one thousand people
present, not more than half of them, however,
being able to get into the church, many of those
who remained outside being seated upon benches
near the windows, which, on account Of the balmy
atmosphere, were left open.
The dedicatory ceremonies were announced to
take place at Up. m, but it was nearly O'Clock
when the visitors from the city, including several
ministers and the choir of St. Matthews Church,
arrived. The services commenced with prayer
by Rev. L. Rymarski, pastor of the church, fol-
lowed by music by the choir of well-traned voices.
The other ministers taking part in the services
were Rev. Mr.. Huber, pastor of st. Matthews
Church, Baltimore, and Revs. Burkart and Bruder.
Throughout the ceremonies were of beautiful
and impressive character and conducted princi-
paly in the German language.
After the services in the church the visitors were
invited to partake of a bountiful lunch which had
been provided by the ladies of the congregation,
and which was temptingy spread on long tables
in the basement. After tho apPotitias OF all had
been satisfied the large assemblage disbursed with
best wishes for prosperity fSt Johns and the
good people who had SO generously provided for
their comfort.
The new church cost about $4,000, exclusive of
the hauling, most of which was done free of charge
by the members The whole amount of indebted
ness, except about $500, had been met before the
day of dedication, and it is thought that the lib
eral contributions on that day will leave the
church practically free of incumbrance.

For long while nothing has created so much
concern among the people as the burning of the
school-house at Sweet Air, in the height of the
sessions fullness and prosperity and at season
when its usefulness and advantages most
beneficial. Universal sympathy is extended to the
principal, Miss M. l.. Dougherty, to whose indie

The farmers are unusually busy preparing for
the winter, fencing, blowing, saving timber, and
above all grinding by the yard the luscious sausage
and fragrant pudding, making the pig squeal and
calling to account his hogship for the numbcrless
barrels Of corn that have disappeared from the
crib. Our neighbor, Mr.. Edward Graefe, whose
fine farm and appurtenances justly deserve the
credit bestowed, has just put away for the winter
some of the finest specimens of the aforesaid pork
ship that the State can produce and which was
the admiration of all who witnessed the butcher
ing. Our genial friend and neghbor, Squire
Thomas Halle, is still on top, and no one in the
community enjoys so much as he the interesting
items of The UNION.
Our postofice is progressing and proving ben
